The advancement of science and technology has undeniably improved the life of man and enhanced certain aspects of the society. It has truly helped us in making our work easier and faster. As years pass by, certain kinds of technology are continually being developed in order to achieve progress and development in the society. These inventions in our continually changing society have led to numerous proposals, one of which is the proposal towards a “Paperless Environment.”

“Paperless Environment” is a proposal which strives to save the environment by reducing the trees being cut down in making papers. This means that instead of using papers in work, in home, or in the classroom, modern gadgets will be utilized, especially the computers. This proposal has led to positive and negative reactions of the people.

Many believed that this will give great benefit especially that in an office used to be filled up with papers, it was an enormous task to arrange these files in racks and maintain them. There was always the danger of fire or other means of damage that would result in permanent loss of those papers. If any of these happened to take place, the files would be irrecoverably lost which cannot be replaced. There was always the need for a permanent solution to this, and the result was the emergence of “Document management”, which has resulted in a paperless environment in most of the offices today.

It might sound easy, but to make an office, paperless demands a lot of problem solving related to industrial needs. It is all about managing your documents in such a way so that it is within your reach whenever needed in the desired form without wasting extra time and space. The evolution of computer has added to the simplicity of office work, and the process of document management is possible only with the help of a computer.

In my own opinion, it’s hard to achieve a fully paperless environment. While it is true that we can reduce the number of trees being cut down through this proposal, Also, there are many disadvantages and problems regarding that particular kind of environment. Not all people have computers and that we consume more electricity in doing that. Our energy sources will greatly be consumed. Also, it’s really hard to live life without papers. We greatly depend on it for our work.

This modern world offers us many things and provided us new inventions and technologies which has become part of our everyday life. I really cannot think of any aspect of my life which is unaffected by computers and technology. From the time I wake up, ’til i close my eyes, these things are being used and these truly aided me in my everyday living.

The rise of computers and technology made the life of man more comfortable, and made man’s work and easier and faster. With all those things that computers and technology has offered to my life, I can say that these things are one of the most important things that I treasure and value.

Many aspects of my life are greatly affected by computers and technology. It greatly aided me in my studies, and how I deal with certain things. It really has become a part of my life, provided that I use it for many things like communication, entertainment, and lifestyle. Everything in my life is greatly affected by computers and technology and I feel really great to be part of the era with rising technology and modern innovation.
